Kitchen Tools freebie icon set
Last Updated on July 21, 2026 by Editorial Team
A beautiful vector icon set with kitchen tools, created by Arzu Sendag. It includes various kitchen equipment like pots, kettle, kitchen scale, grater, measuring cup, oven glove, mixer, toaster, food bowl, salt & pepper shakers or oil and vinegar containers and cutting board with knife.
What makes this kitchen tools icon set so usable is the consistency of its linework. Every object, from the simmering pot to the toaster, is built on the same thin outline with rounded corners, so nothing feels heavier or more detailed than its neighbor.
That evenness matters a lot in icon design. It means you can pull any single icon out of the set, drop it into a layout, and it will still read as part of a family even sitting on its own.
The palette is soft and a little playful: dusty lavender, muted coral, mint green, pale yellow, all used sparingly as small fills or accents against white. Little sparkle marks and dot accents float around several pieces, like steam rising off the kettle or the pot of pasta, which gives the set a light, almost storybook charm rather than a clinical, flat-icon feel.
This warmth is what separates it from generic utensil clip art. It looks hand-considered, with just enough personality to feel friendly without tipping into cartoonish.
Because the subject matter is so specific to cooking and the kitchen, the obvious use cases are recipe blogs, food delivery apps, cooking class landing pages, kitchenware e-commerce sites, meal-planning apps, and restaurant or catering websites.
The grater, measuring cup, mixer, and scale are especially handy for anything involving recipes or ingredient measurements, while the toaster, kettle, and pots work well for breakfast menus or kitchen appliance stores.
A cutting board and knife, oven glove, and food bowl round things out nicely for a full kitchen-themed UI kit or app onboarding flow where you need a variety of small supporting graphics rather than one repeated icon.
Using the Icons in Layouts
Because each icon is built from simple shapes and a limited number of accent colors, they scale down cleanly for use as small UI elements, like feature icons next to a list of app functions or bullet points in a recipe card.
They also hold up at a larger size as standalone illustrations, say, on a cooking class hero section or an empty state in a recipe app.
If you’re placing them into your own design file, it’s worth grouping icons by their accent color so a page doesn’t end up visually noisy.
Since the palette is soft rather than bold, these icons pair best with warm neutral backgrounds, cream or off-white tones, and a rounded sans-serif typeface that echoes the friendly, rounded corners of the icons themselves.
If your brand colors differ from the lavender-coral-mint combination shown here, most vector editors let you recolor the fill shapes while leaving the dark outline intact, which keeps the icon’s structure recognizable even after a full palette swap.
For anyone building a cohesive food or kitchen-related interface, this set offers enough variety, twelve distinct tools, to cover a real project without needing to mix in icons from other sources and risk a mismatched style.
